At Tough Pins Golf, we value the privacy of individuals who use our websites and related services. This Privacy Notice explains how we collect, use, and share the personal information of users of our Services. By using our Services, you agree to the collection, use, disclosure, and processing of your information as described by this Privacy Notice.

• Registration Information: If you sign up for an account, register for a tournament (e.g., the Tough Pins Invitational), or sign up for updates, we collect basic contact information, including your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address. We may also collect demographic information such as age, personal interests, and marital status.
• Communications: If you contact us directly for support or via our questionnaires, we may store the contents of those messages and any attachments to verify your identity and fulfill your request.
• Event-Specific Data: For event registration, we may collect your handicap, shirt size, company name (if a corporate sponsor), and any specific information relevant to the golf outing.
• User Content: We may allow you to share posts, comments, or reviews. Unless noted otherwise, this information is shared publicly through our Services.

• Device Information: We automatically collect IP addresses, web browser types, and operating system versions to ensure our Services function correctly on your device.

Follow the directions on this website for payment information for next Tough Pins Golf outing.  Payment may vary from outing to outing, but usually consists of a QR Code to Hosts Venmo.  We do NOT collect payments directly from this website.  It will be through a host's Venmo account, representing their charity. Tough Pins Golf is not responsible for third-party information linked to clicks from this site. 

By participating in our events, you acknowledge and agree that:

• Photography and Videography: We, or authorized third parties (including content creators), may take photographs, video, and audio recordings of the event. This may include your image, likeness, and voice.
• Usage Rights: We may use this media for promotional, marketing, and commercial purposes on our website and social media channels (including YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok).
• No Compensation: You understand that you will not receive any compensation or royalties for the use of your image or likeness in these promotional materials.

• To Provide Services: To process your registration at courses like Hilltop Golf Course and communicate event details.
• Professional Separation: Information collected for Tough Pins Golf is managed separately from any mortgage or lending data related to Amax Lending. We do not share your personal golf registration data with third-party mortgage lenders without your explicit "NIL/Lending" opt-in.
• Service Providers: We share data with vendors who provide website hosting, email delivery, and tournament management software.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety and rights of our users.

• Opt-Out: You may decline to share personal information, though this may prevent you from registering for certain events. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time via the "unsubscribe" link.
• Access and Deletion: You may request to see or delete the personal information we have on file for you by contacting us at the email address provided below.
